Prognostic value of Lin28A and Lin28B in various human malignancies: a systematic review and meta-analysis

The mammalian homologs of Lin-28, Lin28 (also called Lin28A) and Lin28B, are promising cancer biomarkers. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the prognostic values of Lin28A and Lin28B in multiple human malignancies. Systematic searches of the PubMed, Web of Science and Embase were used to...

Zusammenfassung:The mammalian homologs of Lin-28, Lin28 (also called Lin28A) and Lin28B, are promising cancer biomarkers. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the prognostic values of Lin28A and Lin28B in multiple human malignancies. Systematic searches of the PubMed, Web of Science and Embase were used to identify relevant studies. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), disease-free survival (DFS), or progression-free survival (PFS) were respectively calculated. 3772 Lin28A-associated patients and 1730 Lin28B-related cases were ultimately enrolled in this meta-analysis. The elevated expression level of Lin28A was significantly associated with poor OS (HR = 1.60, P
